newimage 2 Posted October 22, 2007 Dr Cribbibs is in the same office as my dr. I have met him a couple of times and he seems like a very nice man. Though I am not his patient, he says hi to me. I like his smile. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

katy lee 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Does Dr. Cribbins take Medicare? Im wandering because I am looking for a bariatric surgeon. I am wanting to do the Lap Band procedure. The surgeons in my hometown dont take Medicare or Medicaid. They will for cholycystectomies and appendectomies,but not for WLS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pippinje 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Hey newimage....what kind of post op diet did your doc put you on. Just wondering if Dr. Cribbins does the same thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shelby 0 Posted October 23, 2007 I went to Dr. Cribbins - he's great! Really took his time with me and his staff is wonderful. He didn't put me on any pre-op diet. After surgery it was liquids then mushies then soft foods. They will give you hand outs so you will have something to refer to. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
